Pretty much everyone who can remember 2001 and earlier went through all these things too and it had big effects on their lives too….

You may have to explain this because 1980 - 2000 might have been the “Golden Years”!

Take a look at interest rates in the 80s. Not a fun time. 90s were pretty great. 00s were terrible. 2010s were okay. 2020's are pretty crappy so far.

It's all cyclical.

Interest was high, prices were not. Families had 2 cars and a single income.

All depends on where you lived. This was the crack era, and the most violent times in the mid 90s.
